Key Features & Benefits
- 31,000 RPM maximum speed — best-in-class speed delivers clean, chip-free cuts in hard laminates and solid timber edge profiles.
- POWERSTATE brushless motor (1.25 HP equivalent) — matches corded laminate trimmer power with the freedom of cordless operation on site.
- Variable speed dial (10,000–31,000 RPM) — dial down for large-diameter bits in softwood, dial up for flush trimming laminates and veneers.
- 101mm sub-base plate — wide base provides stability on narrow edges and prevents tipping during laminate flush-trim passes.
- 115 metres per charge — a 5.0 Ah battery delivers enough runtime for an entire kitchen’s worth of laminate edging without stopping.
- Dual LED work lights — illuminate both sides of the bit for shadow-free visibility of the cut line and edge quality.
When to Use This Trimmer
The M18FTR-0 is Milwaukee’s answer to the Makita DRT50Z, offering higher top speed (31,000 vs 30,000 RPM) and slightly lighter weight (1.8 vs 2.1 kg). Choose this if you are already on the Milwaukee M18 battery platform and need a compact router for laminate trimming, edge profiling, chamfering, and template work. The 50mm plunge capacity also supports light plunge routing for hinge mortises and inlay work.
